Hosea 9
1 O Israel mipite, Namdangte ho bangin kipah hihun. Ajeh chu na Pathen a dinga tahsan umtalou, notia pang dinga nangmatah kijoh nahitai. Changphol chung jousea gamchom mite pathen- nahoutai,
Rejoice not, O Israel: rejoice not as the nations do: for thou hast committed fornication against thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor.
2 Abonchauva changphola chang in avah va lou ding. Lengpithei konga lengpi thei in jong ato loudiu ahi. Lengpi twithah kichilin jong abonchauva ato louding, chang lou ding ahiuve.
The floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the wine shall deceive them.
3 Hijeha chu Pakai gamsunga chengden lou diu, Ephraim vang chu Egypt gam'a kile kit ding ahi. Chujongle Assyria gam'a jong chu amahon an thenglou aganeh diu,
They shall not dwell in the Lord’s land: Ephraim is returned to Egypt, and hath eaten unclean things among the Assyrians.
4 Pakai houna dinga juning jong alhit lou dingu, kilhaina gantha ijat bol jongleu alungu lhai lou dingu ahitai. Aneh dingu changlhah jong chu kap le lunghema aneh diu ahi. Hitobang an ho chu abohkhat in atohkhah a boh bonga bohsoh ahitan, nehthei hijeng jongleh Pakai houin'a ato thei lou diu ahiye.
They shall not offer wine to the Lord, neither shall they please him: their sacrifices shall be like the bread of mourners: all that shall eat it shall be defiled: for their bread is life for their soul, it shall not enter into the house of the Lord.
5 Phat neiya kibol kut chu, iti naboldiu ham, Pakai dia golvah nikholeh ipi boltauvin natem?
What will you do in the solemn day, in the day of the feast of the Lord?
6 Ajeh chu amaho kisuhgamna jeh'a chemang ahitauve, Egypt in akhop khom dingu, Memphis in avui dingu ahi. Adangka kholnao mun nom ho chu ling dimding chule ahoubuh sunguva jong ling ho keh ding ahi.
For behold they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them together, Memphis shall bury them: nettles shall inherit their beloved silver, the bur shall be in their tabernacles.
7 Gotna kipehna ding nikho ho ahung lhungtan, kilethuhna nikho ho ahunglhungtai. Israel in hichu ahet ding ahi, nakhan gitlounao adimset jehle hotna lentah umho jeh chun “Themgao chu mingol ahin, chule lhagao mi chu michavai ahi.” tin naseiye.
The days of visitation are come, the days of repaying are come: know ye, O Israel, that the prophet was foolish, the spiritual man was mad, for the multitude of thy iniquity, and the multitude of thy madness.
8 Themgao chu Israel pumpi Pathen dinga khongahpa ahin, ahijeng vanga chu achena chan-a thang kikampeh ahin, Pathen houin sunga jong hotna adimset tai.
The watchman of Ephraim was with my God: the prophet is become a snare of ruin upon all his ways, madness is in the house of his God.
9 Kamite natoh ho chu, tumasang Gibeah nikho laiya bangin asetnau anasabeh seh jengtai.
They have sinned deeply, as in the days of Gabaa: he will remember their iniquity, and will visit their sin.
10 Pakaiyin aseiye, “O Israel, amasapen-a kanamu chun, gamgo lah-a lengpi theiga hingset bangin kamun ahi. Napu napateu kanamu chun, aphat laiya theichang agamasa amin banga kanamu ahin, ahivanginla amahon Baal-peor lampia acheuvin, amahotah akipelutun, jachat umtah milim houna munah akiheilut tauve. Hetman loukah in thet umtah chondihlou asohtauve. Chondihlou ahiphat un chonna dihlou milim ahou tauvin ahi.
I found Israel like grapes in the desert, I saw their fathers like the firstfruits of the fig tree in the top thereof: but they went in to Beelphegor, and alienated themselves to that confusion, and became abominable, as those things were, which they loved.
11 Israel aloupina ho chu vacha banga leng mang ding, chahing jong umlou ding, agaijong umlou ding, naovop jong bei ding ahi.
As for Ephraim, their glory hath flown away like a bird from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.
12 Cha neimong mong jongleu, kasuh beiya pul kadousah ding ahiuve. Keiman kakiheimanga nachanga kadalhah tengle, hichu hahsatna nikho hiding ahi.
And though they should bring up their children, I will make them without children among men: yea, and woe to them, when I shall depart from them.
13 Keiman Israel kavetlhih jing ahin, Tua a hoi banga hoi ahi. Ahinlah tua hi achate tha gamna dinga Israel kipuidoh ding ahi.
Ephraim, as I saw, was a Tyre founded in beauty: and Ephraim shall bring out his children to the murderer.
14 O Pakai namite dinga ipi iti kathum peh ding ham? Kathum ding chu nao penlhah louna dinga naobu, nao-an atwi beina ding ham!
Give them, O Lord. What wilt thou give them? Give them a womb without children, and dry breasts.
15 Pakaiyin aseiye, “Achon phatlou nau jouse hung kipatna hi Gilgal ahi. Hichea patna chu kavetda nau hung kipan ahitai. Kagamsunga kona amahohi katheh ngim ding ahi, ajeh chu amahon kadeilou chonset aboldoh jeh uva. Keiman kangailut kittah houhel dingu ahitai. Ajeh chu alamkai hou jong gucha ahibouve.
All their wickedness is in Galgal, for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their devices I will cast them forth out of my house: I will love them no more, all their princes are revolters.
16 Israel mite chu akigotdan danu alhasamun, Ajungu jong agolhagam tan ahi, Chule athingphung jong gatalou ding ahi. Chule cha hing namao jongleh katha ding ahi.”
Ephraim is struck, their root is dried up, they shall yield no fruit. And if they should have issue, I will slay the best beloved fruit of their womb.
17 Ka Pathen in Israel mite chu apaidoh ding ahitai. Ajeh chu amahon kathu ngaipovintin, nitpouvinte. Amaho chu inneilouva namdang mite laha vahkoi leding ahiuve.
My God will cast them away, because they hearkened not to him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
